Tosca Concertante

In the heart of Rome, torn by passion and power, one of the greatest operatic tragedies of all time comes to life: Tosca by Giacomo Puccini. In this concert version, voices and instruments blend into a vivid narrative, where every note reveals the soul of the characters. Renata Campanella embodies a profoundly human Tosca, torn between love and faith, jealousy and courage. Her voice moves through every shade of emotion – from the tender fragility of “Vissi d’arte” to the desperate strength of the final act. Beside her, Danilo Formaggia gives life to Cavaradossi, an idealistic and passionate painter whose voice burns with both heroism and tenderness. Marzio Giossi portrays Scarpia, the embodiment of dark power, cruelty, and corrupt desire. The Ensemble Artisti di Parma enhances the dramatic power of the story through refined and expressive musicianship. The violin of Beatrice Marozza and the cello of Antonio Amedei intertwine in a rich fabric of emotion, while Damiano Carissoni’s piano leads the narration with elegance and intensity, restoring the theatrical tension of the full opera. “Tosca concertante” is not merely a concert, but an emotional journey that draws the audience deep into Puccini’s tragic world—where love and death meet in an eternal instant. A tribute to absolute passion, to music that unveils the human soul, and to the moving beauty of Italian melodrama.
